After shooting a 36 (+2) on the front nine, Els came back to birdie four holes on the back nine, including the 18th hole that sealed the victory.

After his improbable win, Els had this to say (via ESPN): "First of all, I feel for Adam Scott. He's a great friend of mine. Obviously, we both wanted to win very badly. But you know, that's the nature of the beast. That's why we're out here. You win, you lose."

It was a tough day for Scott, who seemingly had the title in his grasp as he approached the 15th hole. After his royal collapse, Scott tried to remain positive (via ESPN) saying, "I had it in my hands with four to go. I managed to hit a poor shot on each of the closing four holes. Look, I played so beautifully for most of the week. I shouldn't let this bring me down."
